Wendy's Kicks Off the Season of Treating Yourself With Free Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers for a Week

Let's face it: This is the season of treating yourself, of going a tad overboard and not feeling bad about it — and here to get you started are free Wendy's Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers for a week. If your ears perked up at the mention of free food, you're our type of gal and this is most definitely your type of deal.

In honor of National Fast Food Day on November 16, Wendy's is giving away one free Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger with every purchase from now until Thanksgiving on November 23. (There's nothing like preparing yourself for a day of gorging by — you guessed it — eating a free cheeseburger.) The only catch is that you have to make your order through Wendy's mobile app, which is available for both Apple and Android phones.

Every day the deal refreshes, so theoretically you could earn eight free burgers in the next week in what we like to call the fast-food version of "The 12 Days of Christmas." And the deals at Wendy's don't just end with this free cheeseburger promotion. You can gain access to exclusive mobile deals by ordering through the app.

We don't blame you for falling off the healthy-eating bandwagon this time of year; it happens to the best of us! It's hard to say no to chocolate-covered this and deep-fried that! So go ahead and shelve that diet for the time being. There will be plenty of time to restart your diet come New Year's. Right now, we're giving you full permission to order your Frosty and fries. With the free bacon cheeseburger that comes with it, you'll have a complete meal!

Our wallets are bound to take a bruising with Black Friday, Cyber Money, and Christmas sales fast approaching — so we'll take free food where we can get it!
